We are boycotting the PAC elections. It is unfortunate that these elections are being held without proper representation for the opposition.

We are boycotting the PAC elections. It is unfortunate that these elections are being held without proper representation for the opposition. The PAC position has often been assigned to parties that do not hold opposition status. This has occurred multiple times, even in Parliament, where the post of PAC chairman has been given to non-opposition parties.

The Public Accounts Committee (PAC) is responsible for questioning the government's mistakes, which is why it is typically assigned to opposition MLAs. In democratic countries, the PAC post is reserved for the opposition. —
